Mediation of slip and fall claims provides a good forum for settlement. Often the attorney representing the accident/injury victim is unable to settle a personal injury claim with an insurance company. Often, it is mediation that provides an attractive option for both the claimant and the insurer.
Here are some reasons why mediation can sometimes be a great option:
- The injury victim can have input and share what his thoughts are about the claim, and that increases the chances of satisfaction for him;
- Quicker and much less stressful and uncertain than litigation;
- Everything that is said at a mediation is confidential which encourages free communication between the parties;
- Flexible and creative problem-solving can occur at a mediation.
Good luck with your claim!
